Reviews of Baku Express Hostel

This is a very good place to stay. The owner is very nice and kind. It was really a great experience. The hostel has a kitchen as well. The location of the hostel is also very good.

Amazing people and the owner.

Everything was good.

Great location conveniently located near the May 28 metro station. Close to many food options and convenient stores, but tucked away from the street noise.

It’s very good property and very humble staff

Great location in the city center, clean property, nice hostel for those looking for an affordable single room in a hostel. The rooms are tiny but quiet and cozy. The hosts are polite and helpful.

There is no fan in the rooms and when the weather is hot during peak summer, the rooms get very hot and stuffy during the day. However, they switch on the AC in the common room at night and keeping the room door open makes it better.

Charming and clean hostel located close to 28 May (main bus station and metro station in Baku). Facilities are great too. Will definitely stay here again if we come to Baku as the price is pocket friendly too!

Description: the location is great, two minutes to the bus station to the airport (see schedule photo). One minute more to the nearest tube station. The host is fantastic, providing all the toiletries, even more than four-star hotels, the bed clothes, towels are white indeed! In addition there are complementary expensive instant coffee, tea, sugar, drinking water, even milk. The design of common areas and rooms is very nice. I had the impression that it's not a hostel, but a high quality hotel. Thank you very much, Rashad ( the host). It was a real pleasure to stay at the hostel, where my feeling was that you sincerely love your guests. I will definitely come again.

A cozy place conveniently situated. Metro, bus, train station, airport express nearby. Restaurants, supermarkets, stores....just steps away. The owner is nice, helpful and responsive.

I chose here because it was close to the airport shuttle point. It had window and a shared toilet, but I didn't use it. The room had clean bedding and bathroom supplies. There were amenities such as water and coffee in the common area. The staff was kind.

The walls were very thin. The sounds from the next room seemed to be in my room. You could also feel someone walking down the hallway. I would have felt safer if it wasn't in a yard like a parking lot. You can enter from the "Drogal Ave".

A good, fair price. Staff were friendly and my private room was spacious

Everything

The price was perfect. The staff was very very supportive and excellent. I believe the best thing about this hostel is its staff. The bathroom and the toilet are shared, and the same for men and women. There is a hairdryer and an iron, which I used both. There is always tea and boiled water in the lobby that you can use whenever you want. The 24-hour tea and coffee availability was good. The breakfast was rich. It was very clean. There are also some board games in the lobby that you can play, and they were great for me.

Maybe sharing one bathroom and toilet for men and women bothers females. For me, it was ok and clean.

Everything , the owner who runs the hostel is very nice , helpful & will assist with whatever he can. Its a quite hostel & very good for the price. 28th May metro & train station are close by & the airport bus.

Nothing

The reception guy is very nice & helpful. Nothing is a problem. Very central , many resturants and Airport bus is very near.

Its a quite area & central to Train / Metro 28th Places to eat are everywhere. Highly recommended.

Great location, good breakfast, fast wifi

The Owner is super amazing. I higly recommend coming to this hostel that feels like home. He waited me for my late arrival from airport at 3am with the smile and prepared the breakfast at 8am. Thank you very much for your welcome.

Cheap and simple place in center of Baku. Don't expect something special for such a price - you get what you're paying for. But overall - it's worth it. The host was very attentive and helpful. Especially the breakfast was over the expectations :) Recommended for layovers and limited budget travels!

The only bathroom (on the second floor) lacks ventilation and the sound proofing could be better. Especially when neighbours think that they're alone. There also could be mosquito nets on the window - you'll be a prey if you'll leave the window open overnight :)

I second all other reviews, this place is very good, thanks to how much care the owner/worker I met puts in his job. Everything works as it should and they are really happy to help you with whatever they can. The price is also very good. This is not exactly a hostel. There are no shared rooms, they provide everything a hotel does like towels, toiletries, free coffee and tea etc. Only the price is closer to what a hostel charges.

Nothing

FANTASTIC! This place exceeded my expectations. It says it's a hostel but there are private rooms, for a good price. It's good value for money. The hostel is new and everything looks very good. The room was sparkling clean and so were the sheets, which is very important for me. Also, the bed was super comfortable, unlike in other hostels. Also, it's very close to the train station and airport bus stop. And the breakfast? Oh, wow! A wonderful, hearty meal. On top of that, the owner is a super friendly and helpful person, and genuinely cares about the guests and goes out of his way to give advice and help. One of the best hostels I've stayed at. Highly recommended.

Very friendly staff. Everything was great.

* Reşat, the receptionist was very kind and helpful. He provided us with good suggestions to travel and eat in Baku. Check-in and check-out procedures were also easy. * Besides towels, shampoo, shower gel, and even sleepers, toothbrush and toothpaste are provided in the hostel. I have firstly seen that sleepers, toothbrush and toothpaste are provided in the hostel. And the quality of these amenities are like the hotel amenities. * The breakfast was very good. And it is not time dependent. Also, you can have your tea, coffee, and water whenever you want in the common area. * Despite having problems to find the hotel firstly, the location was good, it is very close to 28 May metro station, which is a good transfer statin both for metro, bus and airport bus.

* In the bathroom, at least a curtain could be needed for separating bath area and WC. * It was a little bit hard to find the hostel firstly, maybe some baffle plates could be placed in the street.

A very pleasant place! The hostel is small and cozy, with a homely atmosphere — it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Very clean and tidy, with excellent Wi-Fi. The staff is especially worth mentioning: the man who runs the hostel is extremely kind and attentive. I had a very late check-in, but there were no issues at all — he welcomed me without any problem and even offered to let me stay until the evening on the day of check-out. The breakfast was generous and tasty. The location is perfect — just steps away from the airport bus stop. Highly recommended!
